I noticed edit of newly formed account User:Buhuhu and I partially reverted it, but my edit was then instantly reverted by User:Nmate and, therefore, I suspect that User:Buhuhu is an sockpuppet of User:Nmate. Behavior of User:Nmate looked suspicious to me in the past too and edits of this account are pretty much corresponding with edits of two other accounts (User:Hobartimus and User:Baxter9). All these accounts are helping each other in revert warring in various articles and here is an concrete example: Account User:Baxter9 was not active from 23 August 2010 to 10 March 2011 and in that date (10 March 2011) it was activated to help User:Hobartimus in his revert warring with User:Iaaasi: [1], [2]. Also, it is evident that User:Nmate and User:Hobartimus are often editing same articles and helping one another in revert warring, for example here: [3]. Also, knowing that all these accounts are describing themselves as Hungarian, it is very strange that most of their edits are related to Slovakia and not to Hungary: [4], [5], [6] (most edits of User:Hobartimus are not related to Slovakia, but Slovakia-related subjects are highly positioned in his edit count and his first edit was in Slovakization article: [7]). Finally, they all might be sockpuppets of banned User:VinceB who was blocked because of socpuppetry in 4 April 2007 and one of last articles that he edited was Slovakization article, which is also first article edited by User:Hobartimus. Having in mind fact that User:VinceB was blocked because of sockpuppetry in 4 April 2007 and that all these accounts having similar pattern of behavior like user User:VinceB and that all of them were created after User:VinceB was blocked (Hobartimus - 27 May 2007, Nmate - 25 September 2007, Baxter9 - 13 May 2007) there should be socpuppetry investigation about this case. I am surprised that nobody conducted this investigation after original account of User:VinceB was blocked. PANONIAN 12:18, 11 July 2011 (UTC) PANONIAN 12:18, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Some time ago I wanted to make a similar report but but I guess user Panonian beat me to it :). I also believe that there is some connection here, with the exclusion of user Hobartimus (my opinion). There is definitely something wrong here because some of the mentioned users work to synchronized, like a team. I also suspect that user:Nmate`s account was taken over by somebody else because this person learned to speak advanced English in a matter of days. I also saw some examples where he could`t have a simple conversation. Links for bad English: [8]; [9]; [10]; and in a very short time he "learned" advanced English,(not by userboxes info but by talking to him). In a short period of time his English improved dramatically. Anyway I also suspect that these users are connected somehow if no sockpuppets are involved. I hope that this case will shower some light on all this.Adrian (talk) 13:34, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
